INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta

PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked and nicely browned. Once done, slice the chicken into strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and light cream until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the pesto cream sauce until evenly coated.
Plate the pasta, top with the sliced chicken, and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, herbaceous flavors of this well-balanced dish.
